Travelers entering or returning to Latvia from any EU / EEA country included in the “green” or “yellow” list and holding a vaccination or disease or so-called Covid-19 certificate do not have to comply with self-isolation. On the other hand, people without a Covid-19 vaccination or disease certificate may disregard self-isolation when entering from “green list” countries.
